Presented by the Women's LeadershIP Initiative

What does it look like to lead at the intersection of AI, intellectual property, and global change - and what did it take to get there? This session moves beyond the trends to spotlight the personal journeys of women driving structural shifts across the innovation ecosystem. A Director General reshaping IP frameworks, corporate and legal strategists charting new paths through technological disruption, and a 12-year-old inventor already making her mark through AI-assisted patent filings share the stories, setbacks, and breakthroughs that define their leadership. Together, they offer a forward-looking - and deeply personal - view of the decade ahead.
